Tried a few Dingwalls while I was there . Have never played a fanned fret bass before and I was blown away by the playability and sound of them . Beautifully put together basses

I hope they do ok . Was there last month buying a Mayones and had the place pretty much to myself . Was able to try five or six basses without interruption. Was surprised at how small the space is , but my buying experience was good .

Hi Robbo im a year younger than you and started in my teens . Still learning new things every time I pick the bass up . And I do my utmost to pick it up every day . Keep practising and good luck with learning the coolest instrument ever mate.

Thank you for that josie . Don’t actually think there is anything wrong with the preamp . It just doesn’t have a lot of top end boost . Have decided to get rid of it now as I’ve also found that the machines are woeful at holding the guitar in tune as well neil

hello there it came from bass direct . Nice chaps . I’m awaiting a reply from Mayones .yeah tried the batteries and changed them but no luck unfortunately. No gigs this week so would have time to go to bass direct ( 220 mile round trip ) but hoping Mayones can give me an idea chuffed with the support and help you get on this site btw . Thanks

Yes it’s Bartolini pups , Aguilar pre btw

Completely agree with you and it’s a strange one . I have emailed them but it was today - after last nights gig . I compared it to my passive Lakland DJ4 , the Lakland nearly sliced my head off with the same amp settings . I’ve always found that I can pretty much leave the eq on the Mesa pretty much flat and it’s nicely balanced . I’ll post when I get a reply from Mayones . Thanks!

Anybody on here play Mayones .? Bought one a few weeks ago and used it on a couple of gigs and just can’t make my mind up . It’s a beauty and plays nicely but it’s also the only bass I’ve used where I’ve had to use extensive eq on my Mesa D800 to get any cut . Maybe mine has a problem with the pre amp . It has tons of bass and mid boost on tap but the treble control has a minimal effect overall . It’s a Slogan 4 if that helps . I run it through the Mess Subway D800 and two DB Embee 12 cabs . Thanks people
